Maria Sid has been nominated for an international Emmy for her role in "Smärtpunkten", SVT's series about Lars Norén and the Malexander murderers.

”The pain point”, which was directed by Sanna Lenken, was broadcast on SVT in 2024 with David Dencik in the role of Norén.

Maria Sid played the theater producer Isa Stenberg, who together with the director Lars Norén put up the controversial play ”7:3” with three grossly criminal individuals from Tidaholm prison. Two of them were later involved in the police murders in Malexander in 1999.

The international Emmy gala is held on November 24 in New York and Maria Sid is one of four nominees in the category of best female actor. She received last year the Swedish TV prize Kristallen for the same role.
